Is this thing still on?

“You are a museum of everything you have ever loved.” – via

Well, for a while there it wasn’t. This blog, my teeny tiny digital garden had very much gone to seed. For a variety of reasons, it has been offline for a couple of years, but now, thanks to Ben, it’s back, and, with it, 15+ years of blog posts archives too.

Being back blogging after years of mainly sharing to Instagram Stories (with the odd foray into newsletter-writing) feels gloriously expansive. The difference between renting a slick-but-soulless apartment where you’re not allowed change anything and they keep your deposit no matter how immaculate you leave the place and having your very own higgedly piggedly perfectly imperfect home, with all its creaks and cobwebs.

As you’ll no doubt see, there are still kinks to iron out, still a few cobwebs here and there, but it’s genuinely great to be back.
